Floor Division: Knowing the Era by Where You Walk

A floor area that retains existing paving and includes new additions. The original terrazzo or brick floor is preserved in the center, with damaged areas outlined by a metal trim strip. Inside this boundary, a plain new material is laid, flush with the old floor. The trim strip is continuous and thin. Avoid: removing all old flooring and repaving, having no clear boundary between old and new flooring, imitating the pattern of the old flooring in the new section, creating height differences that could cause tripping.

一片同時保留與新做的地坪。原有的磨石子或磚地被保留在中央,破損的區域以一條金屬收邊條圍出範圍,內部鋪上素色的新材料,高程與舊地齊平。收邊條連續且細。避免:把舊地坪全部打除重鋪、新舊地坪之間沒有明確的分界、新做部分的圖案模仿舊地坪、讓高程有落差造成絆倒。
